None other than...the Caravan! Is it car? No. Is it a van? Kind of. It is the Caravan!

White with the faux-wood paneling? Oh yeah. Thats how you knew it was classy.

Caravans had the Dodge 'crosshair' grille. (Plymouth Voyagers had an eggcrate grille.)

It got children to school, soccer and hockey! And it was majestic! Almost wall to ceiling with synthetic velour!
